Title What Jeff. Davis thinks of the war. : The main plank of the Chicago platform is that which pronounces the war a failure, and on that account demands that "immediate efforts be made for a cessation of hostilities." ... Now let us see what Jeff. Davis thinks on this point. He has recently been in Georgia making speeches on the aspect of public affairs, and especially on the progress of the war waged by the United States for the supression of the Rebellion. ... It is now perfectly evident that the best way--indeed the only way to end the war and restore peace--is by sustaining the government and pushing on the war. ... If you approve this, vote for Lincoln! ...
